I got the 60 degree tapered washers and went for 20mm spacers.
So I got the spacers on went to tighten up the bolts only using a wheel brace and I notice they start to get loose the more I tighten them
. This is what I was greeted with when i took them out:

I really don't know how that happened all the years of taking wheels on and off its never happened before. Luckily the thread in the hub was fine gave it a clean out. Got on the phone to demon tweeks they eventually offered a full refund so got to send them back.
So after that I fitted the fronts didn't rub at all then the back one side loads of room the other was pretty close so put on 5mm spacers on the rear for now. Not sure what bolts and spacers to go for next really don't want it happening again.
But I got a rubbish picture of them on the car

I am pleased with how they look just need some spacing on the rear.
